nice share, thanks and reps given
Repped 'ya both!
For the past few weeks, got a bunch of ants trying to sneak up on me everyday from behind the kitchen sink. I can't even positively identify them - thought they were ghost ants (tiny as well as grayish white), but online pictures don't match and these cousins of Atom Ant are pretty quick to boot!

Well, the hexaped hexapods at my place exhibit similar behavior at the kitchen counter. I've got a bunch of airtight containers to seal the food in, everything is so spic and span that one can see their face on the counter (if not for the fact that an ant just darted across their reflection). I even do a reverse Matrix style Keanu (Neo) Reeves stunt (catch morsels in slow-mo instead of dodging them) to ensure bits of food don't reach the counter\floor. In spite of all that, I still spy raiding parties

even before the aroma of food hits my nostrils!
When they first made an appearance, since I stay in an apartment 80-90 feet above the ground, I couldn't even believe my eyes!

Going to the eye-doc. saying, "Help doc! I see daring ants everywhere" was met with, "Don't worry son, I see them too. What you have must be contagious!".
Using a flashlight scares the hell outta them - to throw me off the trail, one starts doing the samba, another the tango, yet another the flamenco all over the counter! And to spite me they even get all their steps wrong!

Aaaaarghhhhhh!!!
But, whack,

whack,

whack

the evil genius gets them all! Muahahahaha!!!
Citrus peels as well as cinnamon were of no use as the brats just use 'em as part of an obstacle course to improve their fitness levels! Numbers have decreased somewhat of late (all the constant whacking must be thinning their herd or they have abandoned the slim pickings for something much grander)!
